OHLCV data

The OHLCV endpoint provides the OHLCV time series data relating to all or one specific symbol. OHLCV is the aggregated form for the Open, High, Low, Close, Volume data attributes of market data. The first four attributes represent the opening, closing, highest, and lowest prices in a specific time interval. Volume represents the total number of trades in that time interval.

We generally use OHLCV data to provide an overview of the cryptocurrency market in a human-readable form. We often use the OHLCV data in charts and reports to predict or understand market behavior.
